GitHub Spammed to Sell Repair Services, Bitdefender Alerts

Popular code repository GitHub is full of annoying sales messages from Indonesian spammers, Bitdefender researchers found. Sales messages have poisoned a large number of project threads, much to the annoyance of GitHub members. An account owner, under the name of Rx150, promotes a repair service for water heaters from Jakarta, Indonesia and invites viewers to call a local number and ask for assistance. It may be an aggressive-spammer bot or simply a stubborn seller who went the extra mile to promote his business.”]
